Never give up!

LondonA student from London who is living The Secret
My Secret journey began two or three years ago when I was introduced to the book by a school friend. At first I was extremely sceptical about The Secret, however after my friend had gradually explained The Secret in depth I began to slowly change the way I thought, and for the first time in my life I started to think positively.
One year passed and after successfully completing my exams and receiving a place at college I had been successfully using The Secret in a variety of different places; from catching the train on time and getting a massive applause from an audience after acting, I was attracting the things I wanted. Despite this, I felt a lot of doubt in the back of my mind and I gradually made myself believe the positive occurrences were simple flukes. I had convinced myself that if The Secret was to ever show up in my life, it would do via a big attraction and not little, minute occurrences such as just generally thinking good thoughts.
I felt myself fall into a pit of relentless cycles. Every time something good happened as a result of me attracting it I would automatically think This should be bigger, it must be a fluke. Subsequently I began to concentrate on the things I disliked about my life. I felt alone and stuck.
And then one night I read The Secret for myself. I stayed up until four in the morning, reading each page once, twice and even three times to absorb every teaching. I eventually wrote notes so that I could glance back at The Secret teachings when I felt upset, angry or doubtful.
I believed in The Secret even more; however I couldnt break away from the negative cycle. I was suffering and fighting an extremely strong phobia for five years at this point, one that made me fear leaving my own home. And then suddenly in the deepest of fear came my biggest salvation.
Almost as if something had gone off in my head, I feel free from all negative thoughts. I realise that it is so easy to concentrate on all the things you dont have in your life. But I also realise that its even easier to concentrate on the things you do.
Its taken a few years but I finally do not just believe in The Secret, I live it.
I know that great things are on their way. And the phobia? What phobia??
There is no reason to doubt, but every reason to believe Never give up.
